So, the dependency of libraries is now clear, even for me.

But what about the dependency library - program.
In the following example, I think, there is something missing.

FIND_PACKAGE(LOCAL_TIFF REQUIRED)

ADD_LIBRARY(_tiff SHARED IMPORTED)
SET_PROPERTY(TARGET _tiff PROPERTY IMPORTED_LOCATION ${TIFF_LIBRARY})
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${TIFF_INCLUDE_DIR})

# Source files
SET(_src ascii_tag.c)
ADD_EXECUTABLE(ascii_tag ${_src})
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(ascii_tag _tiff)
